Aint-It-Cool-News reports that Anime News Network reports that IF Magazine reports (don’t you love how internet ‘journalism’ works?) that a live-action adaptation of the classic (as in quality, not age) anime Cowboy Bebop is in development at Fox.

Details? None. Well - Erwin Stoff is producing, and he worked on the cool-as-balls Philip K. Dick adaptation A Scanner Darkly. So that’s a few points in this film’s favor. I vote Johnny Depp for Spike Spiegel. And Stoff - a word of caution. Don’t forget to sign Yoko Kanno to do the soundtrack, or you’re in serious trouble, buddy.
